COMMENTS
A (simple, undirected) graph G is called Hadamard-diagonalizable if there exists a Hadamard matrix H for which H^T*A*H is diagonal, where A is the adjacency matrix of G (A can equivalently be chosen to be the Laplacian matrix of G).
a(n) = 4 whenever n is odd and there exists a Hadamard matrix of order 4*n.
There is also one Hadamard-diagonalizable graph of order 1 (K_1) and two Hadamard-diagonalizable graphs of order 2 (K_2 and 2K_1).

EXAMPLE
a(3) = 4 since there are 4 different 4*3 = 12-vertex Hadamard-diagonalizable graphs: K_{12}, K_{6,6}, 12K_1, and 2K_6.
